Thank you! Unfortunately, I don’t invest in Japanese and can’t add any value there so videos like this probably won’t happen. I try to stick to what I know and what I am confident taking about.
Thank you, people seem to like the card values part. It makes it much more work so probably won’t do it all the time, but sometimes it’ll be worth exploring.
@@pokecollect32 IDK what grading and selling has to do with appreciating the artwork on it, but alright. I'm just saying if you look at a lot of the other Mewtwo cards they're not hitting like this art, especially with the Zardy there.
@@PokeProfitWho announces when there are official reprints? Does PKMN themselves announce? Or do the distributors all just get together and spread the word.
I honestly think crown is just an all-around better set. Both are amazing for sure, but crown has much larger variety and better looking chase cards. There are just so many great looking cards in Crown Zenith. I have a case of both of these sets, but really wanting to buy another of crown zenith. Time is running out on sword and shield. Gotta buy up some lost origin and Crown Zenith while they’re still available.
Not sure where you’re located but prices are going up for CZ here in Canada. Things you’d see all the time aren’t showing up as much. Such is the circle of the hobby we’re in I guess
@@rodrigorodriguez2299 there is nothing confirmed. Just my speculation. We had Japanese reprint. I dont see them sleeping on it and letting resellers take all the profits
151 English reprint happened/happening now. 151 Boost Bundles were on Walmart site for over a week(prices stayed steady on tcg player at $38-$40)(sold out couple days ago), and got a poster collection case from my local shop.
This is great comparison because they have so much in common. In my opinion, in the long term, I have CZ ahead of 151 just because there’s so much amazing cards. Even though the massive reprints killed it, it’s still standing strong. Once the FOMO kicks in, CZ will go nuts. I still have to see how 151 will do for the reprints. I didn’t go much deep for 151, but I did for CZ and went all in.
To me 151 is a B set, maybe a very weak A set. Crown Zenith is probably a top 5 set ever made. Above Evolving Skies to me. Sets like Evolving Skies have equivalent quality artwork, just 10 times less variety, but the extreme rarity of a decent pull from Evolving Skies makes people foam at the mouth and really over appreciate those arts. Crown Zenith and Lost Origin are S tier, Fusion Strike, Chilling Reign and Evolving Skies are all A to B tier. Sealed Evolving Skies booster boxes are a wild phenomenon. You'd need to open $15,000 in sealed Evolving Skies to pull $1,000 in cards.
This is exactly how I feel. I never had any fun opening evolving skies because you just don’t get anything that looks good. You can open four packs of Crown Zenith, and pretty much guarantee you’re gonna pull something awesome even if the value isn’t super high.
I think 151 will be the far better set in the long run. It’s a set people will want to master years from now. Crown Zenith is fine but feels like most other sets to me. They’ll be a few big cards but the rest of the GG will stay cheap.
Thank you! It depends what type of cash you’re working with. I really only buy ETBs for specialty sets now and some PC ETBs because normally booster boxes will outperform in the long run.
@@PokeProfit Appreciate the response mate and info, here in The Netherlands its tough to get our hands on the PC products as import costs from UK are quite expensive.
I think they would be foolish to reprint 151. It brought in it so many new people, if they reprinted and tanked value, they are going to turn off all of those people from buying any new sets.
I very much so disagree. They’d be foolish not to reprint a set that’s made them millions of dollars. You’re also looking at it from an investing perspective, thinking they’d make investors jaded, TPC doesn’t give a shit about investors, nor should they. Their primary audience is collectors and people playing the TCG. If there are people wanting product and cards at a decent price, it makes sense for them to meet that demand.
It's less than 8 months old. 😂 Of course they'll reprint it just like they're doing Japan next month. 1 or 2 reprints will be healthy overall for the hobby. I'm saying this while heavily being invested into 151.
i just wish there was a crown zenith booster box. i hate buying other stuff cause so bulky for not a lot of packs. the booster bundles are cool but still only 6 packs. I think better pull rates actually helps a set long term assuming there is demand for the cards. for instance with evolving skies prices what they are i doubt many ppl are opening booster boxes to get a moonbreon however if a 151 UPC was the same price as an evolving skies box it would be more in the realm of possibility to want to open the 151 upc.
It does bug me too that specialty sets don’t get the booster box treatment. I think even just the artwork for a 151 booster box, or even a CZ booster box, would have been absolutely fire.
Nice video as always 🎉
Maybe you should next:
Crown Zenith vs VStar Universe !
Would be a good Connection Video (for investment)
Thank you!

Good idea I love Japanese 🏯 carss
i think both investments are fine. nostalgia stuff
Agreed, both will do fine, but unless you think 151 reprints aren’t coming, it doesn’t seem like the most ideal time to get into the set.
@@PokeProfit yeah 100% agree to this. definitely will enjoy the set when the reprints are coming
I like how you structured this comparison
Thank you, people seem to like the card values part. It makes it much more work so probably won’t do it all the time, but sometimes it’ll be worth exploring.
The artwork in CZ is very slept on. I love it. The Mewtwo VSTAR is my fav Mewtwo.
It’s actually my favourite card in the set! I love the artwork also.
@@PokeProfit I've become a bit snobbish lately, so I got a PSA 10 Japanese version.
Shining Legends alt is better imo
Nah It's not that's its slept on its just been graded into the ground so heavily. 151 will be no different
@@pokecollect32 IDK what grading and selling has to do with appreciating the artwork on it, but alright. I'm just saying if you look at a lot of the other Mewtwo cards they're not hitting like this art, especially with the Zardy there.
I’ve heard the 151 UPCs and etbs had a reprint late December
There have been restocks at certain retailers, but as far as I’m aware, there has never been an official reprint announced.
@@PokeProfitWho announces when there are official reprints? Does PKMN themselves announce? Or do the distributors all just get together and spread the word.
Hey, new sub to the channel. Gday from Australia mate. I have 4 etbs and hundreds of loose boosters of CZ. Im bullish. Could be a sleeper
Aye cheers mate! Appreciate you watching from down unda! Which part of Australia are you from?
I have lots if both.
I would like more more CZ but not sure which product. Walmart Bundles, 3-Pack Blisters or ETB's? Decisions, Decisions.
Gotta go with what the gut is telling you!

I have items from both. In the short term I think CZ will do better with the 151 reprint incoming. But in 20 years time 151 will be more sought after
Time will tell 👀
When is the reprint ?

Restocks and a formal reprint aren’t the same thing. This could all be from the original print run for all we know.
@@PokeProfiteither way it’s still a reprint. a restock is a reprint. you are reprinting to restock lol
@@PokeProfitespecially if it sat on the site all week. imagine how big of a reprint it had to be for it to sit. use your head
Restock could be from existing stock frkm first print. General consensus a actual reprint is possible/likely (why wouldnt they]@user-fd2fd6lm1o

My guess is that CZ isn’t out of the reprint window. It will be out again this Christmas. Could be a great chance to load up on the booster bundles
Bundles just got a small restock at Walmart Canada, so you never know!
Crown 151

Definitely a hot take but I’m here for it.
I deff think crown will kill it in the future so many legends
Do you think crown zenith will get a reprint?
@@patescortez88 Not again.
Keep the solid videos coming dawg.
Will do Casey. Thanks for the support
Here is for the algorithm my dude 🎉
Appreciate you my brother 🙏
I think you got this spot on 👍
Thanks Philip 🙏

love the content, for small starting investors would you recommend checking out ETB instead of booster boxes?
Thank you!

If you ignore essentially the entire 30-year history of Pokémon cards you might have a point…
Yeah I hope that 151 does get an English reprint. This time I will buy effectively.
Fire 🔥 video, as always man! Thank you!
Thanks for the continued support 🙏 New videos coming soon
Nice Video !
Thank you Phai!
Much Love and Keep going !
I have 4 Crown Zenith etb- now i buying some more 🤣 and waiting for the Reprint 151, After that i go in !
Love the videos❤
Thank you for watching I really do appreciate it. 🙏
can you do ether vs solana next pls
Ether has shorter name which means it has less potential long term. Remortgage your home and go in on Solana
Tbh as time passes I think crz is a better set
Great 👍 video and fun 🎉
Thank you bro
i love that your audience is 98% male xd
Shout-out those 2% females tho, they the real ones!
i just wish there was a crown zenith booster box. i hate buying other stuff cause so bulky for not a lot of packs. the booster bundles are cool but still only 6 packs.

@@ajithrajaful I like the booster bundles and ETBs. I also have some 3pack blisters.
